Culture and ideology in social life of Russia: differences and identity

In the current conditions of socio-economic destructiveness, everyone rushed in search of something unifying, on the basis of which one can move forward, solve new problems of domestic development. From the high scientific tribunes, from the pages of special publications and newspapers, radio and television often contain the notion of “unifying ideology” as a panacea for all evils. Say, we will find opportunities for ideological unity and, if we do not solve it, we will significantly facilitate the solution of many tasks, create conditions for a favorable life for people: we will overcome poverty, crime, conflict potential, establish social equality, give real freedom. In such passages, nostalgic notes can be traced back to the times of “ideological unity”, the struggle of ideologies, accompanied by optimism of victories and moral superiority of the successes of socialist construction, the might of our power and the generally tolerable living conditions. But it was in another country, a country of social equality, the advantages of a planned economy. Entering a different economic system, adopting new market conditions of life, you need to take a different look at the surrounding institutions and the social factors accompanying these market mechanisms of social development. Does not exclude the new view and the phenomenon of ideology.
